Inspired by their roots in Northern Italy, Renato Sardo and Dario Barbone bring a missing piece of the Italian cuisine to the states: artisanal, organic, high quality pasta. Baia literally means “bay” in Italian, lending themes to their location in “The Bay”-Oakland, CA. With only two other employees, they practice the divine skill of small production. Their method: using five different types of organic wheat, they knead with cold water, cut with brass dies for a good al dente texture, and dry at low temperatures for great flavor. As you cook in boiling water, watch carefully: this is not a pasta you want to overcook.
